Tuck and Over50-
You are both right on track about the unpredictable stuff - the times we just get smacked in the face with something we didn't see coming. Those times require extra attention to keeping up with the exercise and dieting. I know personally, when I have let my self slide by eating more carbohydrates and exercising less, I feel worse physically. Top that off with a good dose of stress or grief, and I guess we have actually done more damage than help to the whole process of getting through what we are going through. Like adding insult to injury or that two wrongs don't make a right. I hadn't really thought about the unpredictable stuff tripping us up - I guess that it is because until reading through your posts and thinking through things, I would have done the same old thing I usually do - blow it under stress. Now I have a plan to have a plan!!! Thanks!
In other news, I forgot to weigh yesterday - so here are the results:
11/5 158.2
11/8 156.4
11/12 155.2
11/19 153.4
11/26 Up from Thanksgiving- don't have the #'s
12/4 152.4
Total loss so far this challenge: 5.8 Pounds
I'd like to lose 4.2 more - I only have 21 days to do that in - that's a little more than 1.3 pounds per week! Yikes!
